WILL THERE DE vvARY

There is big scare in Europe
over the feeling that before long
France and Germany will lock
horns in a deadly struggle. Bis
marck seems to be gradually losing
prestige in Germany and he can
only regain it by involving
Germany in war with France. If
Germany wins Bismarck will again
be the idol of his country.
Boulanger is also ambitions, and
France has for years been smarting
under humiliating sense of defeat
and burning to wipe out the bitter
memories of Sedan. England is
making extensive preparations for
the war with a view of protecting
her ill-gotten territory in India
which is at all times threatened
with danger from Afghanistan
where the Russian troops are being
quietly massed.
The other powers are adding to
their reserves and overhauling their
armament with a view of self-pro-
lection. Every nation is getting
ready to jump at another's throat,
and after the first blow has been
struck the soil of the old world will
be soaked in blood.
1t is not probable that hostilities
will begin before Spring as the
heavy SHOWS render rapid move
ments Of men and heavy artillery
almost impossible.
When those historic rivers, the
Volga, the Danube and the Seine,
break their ice lock and the SHOWS
melt from the plains, the opening
notes Of the war chorus will float
across the sea to tell the mechanics
and wheat raisers of America that
their wares will DO in demand for
the coming year.
It is not a pleasure to think that
the prosperity of the New World
will spring from the smoking ruins
of the old and that families in
America will feed of the war and
wretehedness of their European
cousins, but such will be the case
all the same and we will all reap
the harvest Of commercial prosper
ity with willing sickle and then
sit down and eat the bread of plen-
ty after remarking to the God of
battles, "For what we are about to
receive, make us truly thankful.

Senator John p. Jones

Senator John p. Jones has a
very happy way of stating propo-
sition. What could be more apt
than his way of describing the
tariff. Foreign countries pay for
the privilege of selling their wares
in this country. They bear none
of the burdens of our Government,
owe 1t no allegiance, are not re-
quired to assist in its defense in
time of peril, and dwelling in their
homes abroad, pay SO much duty
for the privilege of selling the
products of their cheap labor to the
people of the United States" That
covers the case exactly. The mer-
chant Of this city would not think
of sitting tamely by and permitting
a Denver merchant to come here
and sell his goods without paying a
heavy license, He would say: 1T
is not only unfair to me but it will
drain the town of money" He
would be right and he would pre-
sent precisely the argument that
tariff men present.
